Scintillation in liquid Ar and Xe, and NaI(Tl) and CsI(Tl) crystals is discussed in relation with dark matter detectors. The nuclear quenching factors for liquid Xe and CsI(Tl) are almost the same. However, measured recoil ion to γ ratios, RN/γ, show the opposite trend in energy dependence. The electronic quenching, qel, is responsible for the difference. The electronic LET is obtained and used to estimate qel and RN/γ in CsI(Tl). The results show good agreement with neutron scattering experiments.
